Hintz scores a goal on three shots
Roope Hintz scored a goal on three shots, distributed three assists and added two PIM in Thursday’s 5-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 2. Hintz was involved in the Stars’ first three goals, sandwiching his own even-strength goal between a pair of Miro Heiskanen power-play tallies that he helped out on. The 27-year-old Hintz also set up Esa Lindell’s empty-netter in the third. Prior to Thursday, Hintz had been limited to one goal and 10 shots on net over his first eight playoff outings. He’s at five points, 13 shots, 15 hits, six PIM and a minus-3 rating this postseason.
Georgiev allows four goals in Game 2
Alexandar Georgiev allowed four goals on 30 shots in Thursday’s 5-3 loss to the Stars in Game 2. The fifth goal was an empty-netter. Georgiev and the Avalanche again found themselves in a hole early on, and the comeback effort fell short this time around. Georgiev’s five-game winning streak was snapped, and he’s now allowed 10 goals over his last three outings. The Stars are giving him trouble early in games, though he may be able to get back on track with this second-round series shifting back to Colorado for Games 3 and 4 on Saturday and Monday, respectively.
